<VV> Oil Pressure Sending Unit

[N. Joseph Potts]

You can remove the old one with a jackhammer, if you choose. What you need
the tool for (get it - it's cheap and widely available) is putting the NEW
one in without damaging it.
     The sender, like the tool, is common to other cars, certainly GM. It
also is widely available for that reason (auto-supply stores).

Hi Gang!

So the oil pressure sending unit appears to be leaking oil on my '65 Monza
110 PG...Does anyone know if this unit is interchangable with other GM
sending units of the time, say a small block chev or inline 6? After reading
the chassis shop manual, it says to remove it with a special tool, but I'm
wondering if a 12 point socket would work just as well? Seems like a simple
enough thing to change otherwise...Thanks in advance
